And the baby's 1st Birthday cake was a lemon curd layer cake. It was seriously delicious.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I wish I could go back to the start and do it all over again, because I have loved having a baby and being a mother to my gorgeous baby boy. Today was very happy and emotional.

How perfect. Baby is such a chubby real boy. I love it how you love him and your family so much. In other blogs I read there is very little mention of all the help the grand mothers give, let alone appreciation. I love it that you do. I have to go. I've just noticed a chip in my nails. By the way love those Manolos. xo

Noooo!!! I can't believe he's one! Happy, happy birthday little FF! I can still remember all those conflicting emotions when my children slamed, somewhat unexpectantly (Go figure!)into the same milestone. (They're now 22, 20 & 9). Thank you for sharing such precious moments, it made me remember my equally as amazing memories.x KL

What a wonderful day for you all! I don't know who looks more cute - you or the baby! The cake looks To Die For and so does the proper food....but yanno me and cakes....I might have to have a bash at making that one!

Happy First Birthday beautiful baby boy! Not a moment nor a milestone escapes your notice FF ... and that's just as it should be! Memories made to last a lifetime. May each year surprise you by bringing even more joy than the one before! Beck xx

So happy for you FF that motherhood is exceeding all your expectations! He is indeed a truly beautiful and sweet little boy. May your joy continue to expand beyond measure. Health and happiness to all!

Oh that is such a gorgeous post. I am sitting here with tears in my eyes over my morning cup of tea. Very happy you had such a wonderful day and first year. Baby FF has brought you such happiness it seems and is so loved. X

Oh dear, a tear to my eye too! He is just getting cuter by the the day - is that possible? Your Mum is a complete gem. Lots more happy memories for her of their personal time together. It is a very special time. Ms A still talks about when we used to drive to my Mums house on a Friday morning (no day care), she was <2 yrs but still remembers that Nanna used to cook her boiled eggies and that i was NOT to give her breakfast that morning because she was going to Nanna's. She even remembers going to the deli at Woolies and nanna would buy her a cheerio. The kind lady at Woolies did it this week and she is 11! First time ever, I didn't ask either. Ms A's face lit up like no tomorrow. She said it reminded her of Nanna. Very special. Love the look of the lollie jars too! x

Happy Birthday baby FF! It's my birthday too! It looks like you've had a lovely day. I'm with you on the wind back the clock thing, it does just fly by. Especially if you only have one I think, very bitter-sweet. I know you embrace colour FF but I have to say you look very lovely in today's outfit. I think neutrals love you!Barb K

Precious! How cute is the little guy in his jammies, crawling around in the gift wrap. Looks like you had a fabulous and heartwarming day. PS Just checked out RPE blog, when you see Lotus for lunch (yes, we know your appointments for the day) tell her I'm embracing leopard as a neutral today too. And I said the very same thing to myself as I pulled on leopardy tunic thing today! Thanks again FF.

Dear Ms FF, What gorgeous snaps. Everything looked perfect. Nothing is better than having all your friends and family about you to remember the day that you were blessed by a baby. You look super glam - I am very envious of those lovely sandals. I hope that you all have a lovely time playing with Baby FF's new toys. love Lindaxxx

Happy 1st Birthday Baby FF. Wow what a fab first year you have had. I remember my son's first Birthday - it was not the serene and sophisticated soiree I see here. I over extended having 60 people in the park and it was a crazy day that kept pouring with rain one minute and then bright sunshine the next so I spent the whole morning ringing people saying it's at our place, then calling back and saying no it's in the park. I was picking up part of the catering (I crazily did the rest - 6 different kinds of gourmet salads and dessert for 60 oh yes) and proceeded to get stuck in a Sydney traffic jam for an hour and a half and my beautifully handmade Women's Weekly cookbook train cake de-railed in the back seat. Needless to say I actually took smoking up again on that day and have never over-extended on a party since. India x P.S. I no longer smoke terrible habit.

Oh Baby FF - Happy Birthday! Your first year has just flown by and you are getting more and more handsome everyday. I can't imagine a more glam birthday party and I am adding myself to the list of people who did not know Missoni did Bears. I think Baby G might need one though.
